Sid Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Great move it is,kept most of their players intact with the exception of Murali ,just need one agressive opener :two_thumbs_up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fineleg Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Chennai should have picked up Graeme Swann (came for a cheap price relatively) Or maybe Tamim Iqbal (to get a lefty opener) - again price was cheap, and for TonteeTontee that guy can do the job.

HowardRoark Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Tamim would have been a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fineleg Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 And G. Swann too (despite him not available the entire IPL) - but thats a 50-50 if their tour coincides too much. Whats the overlap for England? - I dont know the schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Tamim Iqbal or Gayle should be picked. I have a hunch that Haydos is already selected, so that could be the reason I think they will play the big game tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I am glad Badri got picked and deserved to get paid. He has done a lot for us the first 3 IPLs for a paltry sum. Still feel like we are bowling weak. Also not sure how motivated Bravo will be to play for 200k. We should pay him more with some endorsement stuff if possible. :winky: Not sure WTF Saha is doing there. Would have preferred dropthiv in that place. Glad we got Bollinger and Hussey back, although aussies aren't typically available all tournament. Ashwin :yay: Overall looks like we are ready to kick more ass. :hysterical: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 Kudos to the CSK management for going all the way to retain the champion team [in Gowndamani style] I am very happy :yay: Be smart tomorrow as well and pickup some good Indian players from the domestics.

ViruRulez Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 They are buying back the whole team once again at a higher price. :giggle: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 So who all did we lose? Murali - not that bad, we still have Ashwin, but will need a few other spinners as well Hayden - no word on him yet, he has been rather useless couple of seasons, so may be we are ok without him Parthiv - Saha is a bad move, would have preferred Parthiv for 200k more We still need to bring Anirudha and Balaji back.

spectre Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 I think Saha is good player as he showed his potential for certain matches for KKR If groomed well, he can be a handy option We should look at these players outside the auction S Anirudha R Satish Balaji M Pandey A Rayudu S Tyagi Harmeet Singh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zap_Brannigan Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 They are buying back the whole team once again at a higher price. :giggle: What do you expect? All of them performed well and CSK has been the most consistent team in the IPL. Players like Murali Vijay, Ashwin, Badri, Jakati,Srikanth,Balaji were bought for just 30,000 $ when useless players like Flintoff were bought for 1.5 million. So obviously all these players are worth much more than what they were paid and its good to see them get it this time. Murali vijay, who was the batsman of the tournament in Champions league, deserves more than Utappams and Nohits that got 2 million but i am not sure even Raina got that much. So in a way some of the retained players were robbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectre Posted January 8, 2011 Author Share Posted January 8, 2011 CSK should bid for Thisara Perara and Shaun Tait ( if he comes for cheap price) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f.b.m Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I think Davy Jacobs would have been a good buy for csk. Any word on Mayank Aggarwal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
